Echoes From the Beats: Beverly Hills Cops Tell Their Stories [Paperback]

Richard Clason (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: January 10, 2006

In this fine compilation of stories, Dick Clason has managed to preserve some of BHPD''s history as recalled by many of our finest alumni. Each story is reminiscent of a bunch of us (cops) sitting around a table with friends and sharing stories from our past. Police officers, both current and retired, will enjoy this book very much. I am sure it will encourage many more stories and perhaps even another book. The Beverly Hills Police Department has a long and proud history. Some of it can be relived through these stories. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did. David Snowden, Chief of PoliceBeverly Hills, California
